How did you actually rate Groves performance on Saturday night?

McGuigan has changed him strategically but not technically.

 

He has really slowed.

Against Froch in the first fight he looked super quick but now he has lost a little something.

If anything GGG is looking more right than wrong on this one.

A long way from the man who dropped and hurt Froch.

 

Needs to work on his feints still, they are horrific, he does a huge body pop jig, don't think I've ever seen anyone fall for it.

Same old groves to me, looks good at this level but he's still exactly the same fighter, will lose against the elite, wouldn't be surprised to see him pick up a belt against a weaker belt holder.

 

Pointless fight - not even worth a comment

 

I thought he'd slowed too but he did make a comment after the fight which suggested he'd relaxed his diet over Christmas. The fight was made over the SMW limit, so maybe those extra few pounds explain why he looked a little lethargic. And he would have been tense on the comeback after a loss and perhaps was having to think about the way he was fighting because he was following new instructions. All those factors may have influenced his speed.

 

Fantastic jab Groves has innit!

 

Relevant at losing :yep:yep
